Another day, another outage: Yahoo Mail

Yahoo Mail was temporarily inaccessible today for some of its users, following in the footsteps of Google Talk and Twitter, which went down last week.

Yahoo confirmed the problem in a tweet by @YahooMail: “We are aware of the Mail issue are working to fix this issue asap and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”

A Yahoo spokesperson said in a statement, “Yahoo! Mail, Messenger and other areas of Yahoo! were inaccessible or slow to respond to some users in certain locations earlier today. The issue has been resolved.”

No word on the cause. Last week, Twitter blamed its outage on the duel failure of its data center.
